Default What brand of Hose end fitting is this?

Can anyone recognize what brand hose end this is? I would like to change the length of the line. From what i have read the same brand line is required (or at least recommended). I've searched the net but can't find what it would be.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Really think it's an Earls? I the few I found pictures of earls and the had earls stamped in them. But what do I know? I'm new to the reusable fittings for braided hose.

Oh the symbol on the side looks like a "G" but the tail on the G is like an arrow.

If it helps the fitting itself is on a clutch line that was made by someone else to adapt to the T56 trans slave. So the line. SO I believe the line is a teflon coated line.

shouldn't matter. As long as you get the correct size teflon-lined hose, and a replacement ferule if it was any material other than stainless steel.

The difficulty I am having is finding out what markings those companies have on their parts. Anyone know?

Maybe I'll just try a line and see if it will fit. Hate to go that way but if it works....

line/fitting manufacturers usually manufacture to a standard, most likely a mil-spec.
